Open Gear Spray Lubrication System.
Gear spray is popular in cement plants, mining, Iron Ore crushers, kilns, and any external gear drive usually with a dry sump.
Pneumatic drive piston pumps manufactured by the company Dropsa (Italy) are installed for supplying oil. All equipment is mounted in a hinged cabinet: cyclone dryer and air preparation units, a 40-liter tank, main and backup pumps, which allows to make emergency repairs without stopping the system. Switching between pumps takes place in semi-automatic mode — just turn the ball valve to the required position. The progressive divider with an inductive cycle sensor of the Dropsa company allows to set the exact flow of lubricant and monitor emergency situations.
The control system based on the Siemens S7-1200 controller and the HMI panel of Weintek allows to make fully control the operation of all units and aggregates, the directions of air and lubricant movement, thanks to an intuitive mnemonic diagramm. The state of the system at a current moment of time can be easily determined by the indicators of the signal column. The generator of the air-lubricant mixture based on the oil-air divider manufactured by Dropsa and the panel of 8 sprayers is installed directly on the protectiv casing of the gear transmission, which requires the mounting of only two lines between the lubrication system and the gear — the air line and the oil line.
